❤ Gameplay Overview

The game features a straightforward three-click swing system. Players press a button to start the swing, then again to set the power, and a final time to adjust the accuracy. This allows for an easy-to-learn but challenging-to-master gameplay loop.

❤ Shot Mechanics and Club Selection

Players can add backspin or topspin to their shots, and the different club selections (which improve power but reduce accuracy) force them to strategize their approach to each hole. Shots from the rough or bunkers noticeably impact distance and control.

❤ Putting and Green Reading

Reviewers highlight putting as one of the more challenging aspects, with the greens described as "icy" and the ball exhibiting unrealistic amounts of slide and bounce. However, the "putt preview" feature allows players to gauge the break and speed of the green.

❤ Course Variety and Customization

The game comes with 8 pre-designed 18-hole courses, but the robust course designer tool allows players to create and share their own custom golf courses. Reviewers praise the courses' visual charm and distinct character.

❤ Progression and Unlocks

As players progress, they can earn coins to unlock new gear and cosmetic items for their golfer. The game also features a series of single-player challenges that pit the player against AI opponents, providing a way to hone skills and earn rewards.

❤ Multiplayer and Social Features

The game supports both local and online multiplayer, allowing friends to compete simultaneously. While the online multiplayer is noted to have a smaller player base, the ability to play with friends is a highlight. The game also features a social element, with players commenting on each other's shots and scores.
